Is your best friend fighting cancer? Mine is. Chemo is kicking her butt HARD and she needs some help getting her daughter back home to help her. Claudine has been here to support this community and now she needs some support too. Pancreatic cancer survival rates are... well, not great... and that extra time together and support is everything right now. She's a single mom with kids that still depend on her, and getting the right care and support are her best chance to beat this. I know times are tough on everyone right now, but if you have even a few dollars to spare to help her daughter get home to help, they've put together a GoFundMe fundraiser... https://gofund.me/ea49a0a5c Thank you in advance for your support! Admins - I hope this ok to post... if it's not, I'll take it down.

Welcome to 3X Freedom! My name is Kasim (rhymes with "Awesome"). I'm a welfare baby turned decamillionaire and and my goal in life is to help you achieve freedom through entrepreneurship. For the last 20 years I have done nothing but obsessively studying how to build, grow, and exit businesses. The result is a collection of frameworks that I want to share with you here. But that's not where the value is. The value is in YOU! Here's what I need you to do immediately: Introduce yourself! - Got to the General Discussion - Create a new post - Tell us what you HAVE (what makes you awesome?) - Tell us what you WANT (what are your goals?!) - Tell us what you NEED (what's keeping you from your goals?) Go do that right now!! House Rules (Read These or Pay the Dumb Tax) - This community only works if we all bring the heat. - Share what’s working. Drop insights. Post wins. Teach what you’ve learned by bleeding for it. - Don’t post garbage. If it’s low-effort, AI mush, or generic “here’s my thoughts” content — I’ll delete it. If I do, I’ll usually tell you how to level it up so next time it hits. - If you pitch, you’re gone. No warnings. No wiggle room. If your post ends in you collecting money from someone here, that’s a pitch. You know it. I know it. Don’t test it. - Your team can absolutely use the resources and show up to intensives. But this group is for owners only. That’s how we keep the signal high and the convo sharp. How to Win in Here - Post what’s working in your biz - Steal what others share (ethically), use it, then share your results - Tag the people whose ideas helped you — keeps the flywheel spinning - Share wins in the Wins category so we can celebrate and dissect - Engage. Ask real questions. Give real answers. This is the room. Show up. Contribute. Execute. Be Free. Glad you’re here. Let’s get to work.

I'm Erick Gomez, a general contractor and business owner. My niche is commercial fence, so I've spent my young years building things with my hands: chain link, ornamental iron, security fencing for commercial and industrial sites. I know how to build a solid fence. What I'm still figuring out is how to build a solid business. The trade is real. The demand is real. But systems, delegation, and scaling? That's where I've been leaving money on the table and burning out trying to do everything myself. That's why I'm here. I want to take what I know (running crews, winning bids, managing projects) and pair it with what this community teaches: frameworks, execution, and eventually, freedom. I'm not coming in with a SaaS startup or a personal brand. I'm a boots-on-the-ground contractor who wants to stop being a slave to the job site and start building something that runs without me. What I HAVE: I grew up in this industry. My family was in construction and I started selling fences before most kids my age knew what a post driver was. Thirty years later I know every part of this trade from the field up. Sales, estimating, installation, project management. Not from a textbook. From job sites, client calls, and hard lessons. In 2017 I founded E. Gomez Construction Inc. We are a licensed general contractor holding active municipal contracts with the Village of Wellington, Town of Davie, City of Sunrise, and surrounding South Florida municipalities. What I WANT: I want to stop being the bottleneck. Right now I am still in the middle of too many things that should be running without me. I want to scale the government contracting side, get our operations tight from lead to paid, and build something that does not depend on me being on every job and in every decision. Legacy, not just a job. What I NEED: The connective tissue. I have the tools. I have the team. I have the contracts. What I am missing is the systems and automation that tie it all together and get me out of the critical path. I am also working on growing the brand and landing bigger government work, including working toward our DBE and SBE certifications. I am here to learn from people who have already done it. And I will give back everything I know about winning in the trades.
